When you are ill, you must be unhappy because your body becomes hot, and there are pains all over. You don’t want to work. You stay in bed, feeling terrible.
What makes you ill? It is germs (細(xì)菌). Germs are everywhere. They are very small and you can’t see them with your eyes, but you can find them with a microscope. They are very small and there could be hundreds of them on or in a very small thing.
Germs are always in dirty water. When you look at dirty water under a microscope, you will see them in it. So your parents will not let you drink dirty water.
Germs are found not only in dirty water, they are also found in air and dust. If you cut your finger, and if some of the dust goes into the finger, it will become big and red, and you will have much pain in it. Sometimes they will go into your body and you will have pain everywhere.

【答案與解析】
短文大意是：細(xì)菌無處不在。臟水里，空氣中或塵埃里通常含有大量細(xì)菌。它們是使人生病主要元兇。
1.D 從文首的兩句話中，可直觀地看出人生病時，身體發(fā)熱，渾身疼痛，精神不愉快，也不想工作。故前三項(xiàng)皆包括在內(nèi)。
2.B 雖然細(xì)菌無處不在，但根據(jù)“…They are very small and you can’t see them with your eyes, but you can find them with a microscope.”一句可知正確答案為B。
3.B 通過a microscope可以看到小得肉眼看不見的細(xì)菌這個意思，我們可以推斷出 microscope的意思是“顯微鏡”。根據(jù)常識，我們知道，顯微鏡是用來放大很小的東西的，而并非使其看起來更清楚些，也不是用來殺死細(xì)菌的。
4.B 上句說“在顯微鏡下觀察臟水時會發(fā)現(xiàn)其中有許多細(xì)菌”，緊接著就說“So your parents will not let you drink dirty water.”，因此，答案是B。
5.C 參看第三小題的分析。
6.D 第二段的“What makes you ill? It is germs.”即是本題答案的出處。
